Water Temperature And Fishing

So you have put everything together and you are ready to catch that big fish but I bet you never took into consideration at how the temperature of the water would affect the journey you are about to embark on.

When it comes to fishing in the spring time water temperature becomes very important. The success of a spring fishing trip can be won or lost because of even as little as 3 or 4 degrees rise in water temperature. As the water rises the fish start to move and they become more aggressive. Once this happens they start to move closer to shore to feed. At this point the fish should be easier to catch.

When it comes to water temperature and fishing there are a couple of factors that need to be looked at.

Of course when we think of temperature we think of heat and outside we all know that our heat comes from the sun that shines above us. The second factor we need to think of whether you believe it or not is rain. So the two factors that we need to most consider when it comes to fishing is sunshine and rain and then we will be dealing with what most affects fishing. since the water that falls from the skies is much warmer then the water sitting in lakes you will want to focus your fishing in places where the rain runs off. Places like ditches, small rivers and creeks will be great starting points.

It wont take fish very long to find these warmer run off areas. With in a couple of hours you will have fish chasing food in areas that will work great for you when it comes to fishing. It is now up to you to take advantage of the water temperatures and use the right lures. Learn what lures are the best for the fish you are trying to catch and get them on your line. Once you learn how the temperature affects the fish you are trying to catch you will stand a better chance of catching greater numbers.

It can take several days of sunshine to change the temperature in the water which would in turn change the activity of the water. It will be worth your time to pay attention and play the waiting game because when they start biting you will be very happy.

The day will come when you find yourself doing all the right things but unfortunately you will not catch a fish until everything is just the way it is supposed to be when it comes to water temperature and fishing.
